Can someone please help me understand how the Texas Mile works? Do you get to run more than once a day? If so how many times a day can you run? Are there any decent hotels/ restaurants in the area? How do they decide what order cars run in? If you run 140mph twice to their approval do you...

Please put me down for the whole lot. knob, sleeve, leather boot, and short shifter. Is all of it easy to instal? And can I return to factory specs without noticeable damage?

I have used Premier Garage in one garage they are reasonably priced and look great installed. In my other garage I used Moduline which is all aluminum, comes in any color you like. they are just awesome but higher priced than Premier Garage.

I am doing my first HPDE with NASA at NJ Motorsports track at the end of this month. I would get together there or anywhere. I thought it was just me, I never heard of Roberside either! John

Hi, My name is John Kiely and I am from Monmouth County, NJ. I have two 2006 FGT's. One is for the track and one is stock. JMK

Good point Fubar, I can imagine the FGT getting its share of attention. However, I want the opposite since I am brand new. I was thinking maybe I should dress as a bush or shrub and try to blend in with the scenery. 2112, thanks for the advice. I am bold as a bat. Have hat will travel. JMK

Great advice and I agree. I am very comfortable with the fact that I am a novice and that I have loads to learn. Thanks again to all that commented.

Great thank you for the advice. I was referring to static cling stickers instead of vinyl stickers for putting the required numbers on. Sorry for the confusion.

Hi, I am entering my first NASA HDPE 1 event in NJ at the end of this month with my FGT. I am a novice. I had tires, brakes, exhaust, transaxle cooling, 5 point seat belts, fire extinguisher, and air flow work done to my GT by Ida Automative. I have a brand new helmet and Hans device. (Is a...

My Ford GT has no upgrades, it is completely stock. The horsepower rating to me is really just a baseline not an absolute number. I was told to run the FGT in 4th gear because that is the closest ratio to 1:1, hence getting the most horsepower to the rear wheels. Ralphie, thank you for the...

Ralphie, What is a forum member? please explain, I am a little confused. Viper, I live in Monmouth County, NJ. Nota4re, Yes I did notice the fuel mixture getting richer but did not know why.

I will be waiting for the next six weeks to find out, but the weather here is going to turn bad any moment so it really does not matter how long it takes.

Hi Again. My name is John and I introduced myself to this board in November. I purchased a 2006 Blue FGT from Shelby and today took it to Ida Automotive for upgrades. I met with Rob and Bob Ida and they wanted to set a baseline before they make any changes so they put it on their chasis dyno. I...

I got to the GT tonight, work got in the way all day, and upon starting it up I could not get the light or sound to activate. I should have tried putting it in gear, but did not. No news is good news! Thanx for all your help. Much appreciated.

OK, thanx for everyone's help. Part is ordered! Thank you Torrie. John

Thank you for all the quick replies. I will check the bonnet tomorrow night. the next time I will be able to see the GT. Can anyone tell me where to order the part from and what it is called?

Hi, I am a brand new to both this board and a Blue, four option 2006 FGT. While driving 10 mph today the door ajar sound and light came on. I opened and reclosed the door while moving. The sound and light continued. I stopped the car and opened the driver's door and a small piece of black...

Hi, I am a brand new member with a 2006 GT. Are shift knobs still available? if so, may I have one in stock knob finish with dark blue fill? John

Does just starting your GT on rainy days with the garage door open count as fanatic? Thanks for the warm welcome.

Howard, That is interesting.I have never seen another one in Monmouth County which I consider central Jersey ( but people debate me on that!) John
